This Lincoln Wheat cent is just odd which usually means PMD.

Here's some stats - weight = 1.88g - diameter = .73" - thickness max = .045" - thickness min = .032"

What is the slag? Hope someone on here has seen this before. Thank you very much!

It's damaged by either heat or acid. PMD.

I'm on team damage on this one too and it looks like the date might be 1950.

PMD. Most likely acid.

All,Thanks for the feedback! I figured PMD, but always good to second check. Thanks again.

Looks to me like both acid and fire. Fire is where the slag comes from.
